So the new contest is about the NUMBER of pull-ups. I was doing great about a month and a half ago, but unforunately I injured my butt muscle a month ago and missed a total of 5 weeks due to my injury and winter break. None the less, I am back to working my back and doing pull-ups. I tried my luck today at the gym and managed to score a total of 20 pronated pull-ups with perfect form. That leaves me with little less than 2 months to manage to get another 10 more pull-ups to place number 1 as of right now.

Being a Chicagoan by heart, you HAVE to root for your home team. The city is buzzing with the blue and orange colors of the team. People are supporting the bears at work, home, and of course at the great Soldier Field in downtown Chicago! It's a great experience sharing the same feeling with millions of others around you. So if you're a Bears, Packers, or simply a die hard fan, gather up and share your thoughts brahs

Guess what came in the mail today?

That's right, 3 Pro Performance shaker cups from GNC. I bought them online about a week ago; they were on sale for $3 a bottle. My old one has a small crack on the lid, so I decided to stock up on a few :)
These things are the most reliable ones out there (genetic bottles, not necessarily from GNC), and they work miracles. Gym rats know this is an essential accessory made for our lifestyle. Just add a scoop of protein, pre workout, or whatever powder you're taking, add water, milk, or juice, finally shake the mofo and you're good to go in a matter of seconds.

I know a lot of yall are pretty jelly right now, but if I see another sale as thus one, I'll make sure to update my blog with it

So spring is coming up... Us gym rats know exactly what that means: Cutting season!

That's right, now that winter is passing by (kind of...) we need to start getting ready for Spring and Summer time. That means lowering the caloric intake at home, raising the reps at the gym, and catching up with the good ole cardio!

Today I officially started with half am hour on the resistance machine (lack of stairclimber at my gym), as well as hitting the abs to define them.

I'll be shedding a couple pounds over the next months and hopefully acquire aesthetics while disregarding mass.

Anyone else doing so, props to you, since this isn't the most pleasant thing to do.
